Barnes, Marcia A.; Clemens, Nathan H.; Fall, Anna-Mária; Roberts, Greg; Klein, Alice; Starkey, Prentice; McCandliss, Bruce; Zucker, Tricia; Flynn, Kylie – Journal of Educational Psychology, 2020
Cognitive skill differences that are apparent early in pre-kindergarten (pre-K) might provide predictive insights into risk for learning difficulties at school entry, particularly around early markers of risk for comorbid difficulties in early math and literacy. Domain-specific abilities (approximate number system or ANS acuity, phonological…

Speed Isn't Everything: Complex Processing Speed Measures Mask Individual Differences and Developmental Changes in Executive Control
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed

Cepeda, Nicholas J.; Blackwell, Katharine A.; Munakata, Yuko – Developmental Science, 2013
The rate at which people process information appears to influence many aspects of cognition across the lifespan. However, many commonly accepted measures of "processing speed" may require goal maintenance, manipulation of information in working memory, and decision-making, blurring the distinction between processing speed and executive…
